Teddy Riner solidified his status as the greatest judoka of all time by winning his fourth Olympic gold medal at the Paris 2024 Games, becoming the most decorated Olympic judoka in history with six medals. The 35-year-old French athlete triumphed over South Korea's Kim Min-jong in the final, following victories against top competitors, including the number one ranked judoka, Temur Rakhimov. Riner's victory was celebrated by a passionate home crowd, and he received accolades from French President Emmanuel Macron. Known for his enduring dominance in judo, Riner has amassed 11 world titles and a remarkable 152-match unbeaten streak. His journey has been marked by resilience, particularly after a disappointing bronze finish at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, which he sought to rectify on home soil. Riner expressed immense pride in representing France and achieving this historic milestone in front of his family and supporters.
